I live in the south where these "pageants" thrive! I've always despised watching one child get held above all others. When I moved here and becomes a mom, other mothers were always pushing for me to enter my child into a pageant. Imagine their hate for me when I replied " I don't need a crown to tell me my child is BEAUTIFUL" ... Lets just say those pageant moms left me alone once and for all :) those pageants look like TOTURE

Wow spell check makes me write ignorant! Haha! * when I became a mother.. Not becomes a mom!!! I sound like honey boo boo's momma! Ugh! I cringe when I think of the episode with her neck crust!!! Gag!

These shows are designed to get people to accept pedophilia. Tear down this nation a little more. It used to be a crime for blacks and whites to date but starting in the 80's tv began showing mixed couples as the "cool" thing. Now, almost every commercial has a black guy with a white girl. Being gay was something to be ashamed of and beat up for but in the 90's, with shows like Will and Grace, it became "cool" to be gay. Now, almost every tv show has a gay person or a straight male who hints at being gay (ie the dad on modern family, the indian guy on BBT, the douchebag guy on THM).

Now we have these sick shows that dress 8 year old girls up to look like 22 year old hookers. That, and these cougar shows and 45 year old teachers frucking their 14 year old students. I have teenage daughters who have friends that have and are dating guys in their 20's and 30's. These are 15-16 year old girls screwing 20 and 30 year old's and todays generation sees nothing wrong with it because they are "in love". BS.

You watch, in 20 years it will be acceptable for a 25 year old man to date a 12 year old girl. Those who speak out against it will be accused of spreading "hate speech".

Thats if this country will be around in 20 years, which it won't be.

What? That's not why it was "designed." It has nothing to do with pedophilia. It's a train wreck you can't help but watch..BECAUSE it's so wrong. It's all about ratings. No hidden agenda here.

I hope this was sarcasm, they have to subtitle the show because the familie's language skills are so poor. There's a difference between a Southern drawl and utter ignorance.

Why do the tv producers even put on shows like this? They take the worst of American and parade it for millions to see. I blame those guys for portraying Americans that way, by taking the worst examples and making tv shows out of them to make it seem like it's normal.

no he's right honey boo boo (Alana) is smart, probably the smartest in the family she's just not in an environment where her intellect is gonna be able to develop...gotta completely disagree with the poster earlier who said it was perfectly okay to give a 5 year old child Red Bull, that's fucked up right there, she's gonna smoking meth by the time she's 15.
